not go out in town yesterday, but remained
in the house at the park. The ladies of
Macon rendered a reception to Mrs. Davis,
Mrs. Hayes and Miss Winnie Da is. The
citizens presented Mrs. Davis with a silver
soup tureen and the officers Of the fair pre-

how THE CONFEDERATE FLAG AFFECTED Hin.
MACON, GA, October 26-Thirty thousand
veterans from all parts Of the south assem-
bled here to-day and we're reviewed by Mr..
Davis. 1t was arranged that Mr.. Davis
should not speak, owing to his feeble con
ditiOn, but at the sight Of the tattered
confederate Tag IN the procession he rose
and said that he was like that flag, in that
he was torn and riven by storms and trial.
He loved it as a msmentO of what had been
done by fathers and SONS. He was glad to
see them again. Shcrt speeches were made
by Governor Gordon and Senator COlquitt.
There were 90, GOO visitors at the state fair,
where Mr.. Davis again reviewed the veter-
ans in the afternoon.

LIFE OR DEATH
The Fate Of the Anarchists Trembling in
the RaEanee.

Inc rate OF the Anarchists Trembling in
the Balance.
WASHINGTON, D. c., October 27.-The an
ticipatiOn Of the argument before the United
States supreme to-day upon the petition for
a writ Of error In the Chicago anarchists
case attracted TO the capitol crowd Of ca
ger people, who seemed as anxious to gain
admission to the &C urt room as If the an
arehists themselves were to be present IA
chains and leg letters to argue their own
ease in person. More than an hour before
the court assembled, the court room was
densely packed with people, who not only
occupied the seats provided for the specta-
tors, but encroached upon the precincts Of
the bar and stood in closely packed throngs
in the open spaces on each side of the door.
Even out in the corridor there was a crowd
endeaVOEing TO at least get a glimpse of the
interior OF the court room through this en-
trance. The audience was destined, hoWeV-
eE, TO be at least for a time disappointed.
When court was called to order at u O'Clock
and candidates for admission to the bar had
been sworn, the chief Justice announced that
court would proceed with the unfinished
business of yesterday. This unfinished
business was the case from IOuisiana, which,
however important to the itigants, had very
little popular interest
Argument IN the Louisiana case was con
cluded by Mr.. BeckWith at 1:05, and the
chief Justice said:
1--WE are ready now to hear the motion for
q writ of error in the case Of Spies and
others"
General B. F. Butler asked the court how
much time would be allowed for argument.
Mr.. Tucker represented, he said, a majority
of the petitioners. He represented two of
them, whose cases we're in some respects
different from those of others.
The chief justice said that each side would
be allowed three hours and that Mr.. Grin
nell might speak.
The attorney general Of Illinois viii con
clude his argument for the state tomorrow
and will be followed by General Butler in
behalf Of the petitioners and particularly of
Fieldsn and Spies. Mr.. Grinnel will prob
ably make the closing argument in oppOsi-
ton to the motion for writ Of error and

The Russian Army.

LONDON, October 26.-Not long ago state
ments concerning the supposed weakness Of
the car 3 army were quietly Matched by the
German newspapers and began to make the
rounds of the press Of all countries. Credit
was rarely given to the source Of the inter
esting items and very generally it was lost
sight OF that German Virulence and
animO5ity had inspired the articles,
cred as honest reports, and as such were be-
hsVed by people at large. Dire pictures of
the utter falthlessn6ss OF the Russian sol
dlsry were drawn, and 1t was repeated again
and again that large portion of the officers
of the Russian army were Germans, who
Fatherland. 1t was said that many nihilists
and socialists were IN the ranks, and that IN
the event Of a war the car would ind his
own army so far from being a protection and
an instrument in his hand for offensive war
fare, that protection from the army itself
would be a mOmentOus ques- ion to Ru5sIa's
ruler. Ali this and more was said and It
found It's way into general credullty. The
fact, however, Is that the cars army was
never perm ps IN better condition than at
present While necessarily there are nihilists
to some extent among the soldiers Of so large
an army, and while there is & system Of pecu-
latiOn being carried on By ring OF unprin-
cipled officers, the discipline and character
of the rank and file of the Russian sOldisry
equal those Of any country, and Will exceed
most. If anyone has fears for the cOndi-
lion Of the Russian army he can
quiet them by rejecting upon its actual
strength and numbers. and that 1t IS
an uudOubted fact that the car can count on
the loyalty Of his soldiers IN the event of
war or otherwise. The manCsuVres OF 2OG,-
600 reserves at Moscow last week resulted IN
satisfaction, and this Is only one evidence
OF many OF the strength and the strategic
ability of the Russian army, which IS by no
means so enfeebled as the Germans would
have it believed.

THE DOOMED ANARCHISTS.


Preparations Making for the Execution
A Sensation in the Jail
CHICAGO, October 25.-Preparations are
already being silently made for the anarch-
ist execution of the 18th of November. Al
ready orders have been given, it is said, to
the members of the Second Illinois National
guards, that they viii be required to
be on duty for a full week or perhaps longer,
prior to November IL. The probability is
that the hrst regiment will be called upon to
do the same. It is understood, however.
that neither Of the regiments
will be called from their respective
need The gloom which has marked the
condemned men with one exception for sew
eraI days past still continues to deepen. The
exception Is that Of Parsons, who still in
and laughs and Jokes with those who
call upon him. The others, however, make
no longer any attempt 10 conceal their feel
lngs or TO blind themselves to the fate which
threatens them.
Quite a sensation was caused to-day
among the inmates of the WOman's depart
ment of the jail by an official
request thar they help make the shrOuds and
caps to be used at the execution of the con-
demned seven. Some of the inmates were
willing to do the work required and were
anxious to participate in the ghastiy task,
but others We're opposed to rendering any
aid and these formed so large part of the
inmates that IL may be necessary to have the
work done outside the Jail. The materi j.
White unbleache1 muslin has already been
purchased. Each shrouId viii be shaped
like q bag, only with holes on both ends and
gathered clear TO the top.
The hood viii be half yard in width and
about the same length, gathered together at
the top which will be about ten inches
across. The material Is cut into the
necessary shape and lacks nothing
but the stitches that were asked to-day of
the mOtle. crowd of the woman maIefactors
confined in the same prison with the
seven death-sentenced anarchists.

OFT OF LUCK.

Another One of st. Louis Pets Razzie-
DazzIed Most shamefuIly.
LAKE MARAEANCOCK, NE, October 28.-
Teemer won the boat race. His time was
20:2855; Guadaur's time was not taken. He
was a mile behind and padded home. The
weather and morning was all that could be
desired and the water good, but predictions
Of fast race were not borne ont by the re-
suit. When the referee gave the word to 60
they sped away IN good shape. Teemer had
made up his mind to outrOW Gaudaur and so
pulled for all he was worth. Tbs race for
the first mile was all that the spectators
could wish, but the AlcKeespOrt sCullsr soon
showed his superiority over his rival and
drew away from him. Guadaur tugged
manfuily at his SOULS ard with his great
strength sAillfully brought into place, squirt
ed again and again, and did every thing that
he could to get on even terms with Ieemer,
but to no purpose. The champion Of Amer
lea saw everything and went a little better
and won the race handily in 20.2S55.

The Next Important Step in the Settle

Taken.
NEW YoHE, October 2s.-The next i'm
portaut step toward complete settlement
Of the telegraph war presumably second
only to the purchase Of the Baltimore aud
Ohio system by the Western Union company,
was taken yesterday. An agreement was
made between the Mutual Union, the fight
ing contingent of the Western Union
company, and the Postal Telegraph company,
which now represents the only opposition.
Mr.. Gould said in reply TO an inquiry Wheth-
er the agreement meant the ABSORPTION of
the Mackey land and ocean lines: 81 guess
not. As / understands the sitUa-
ton the Mutual Union and
Postal companies have agreed
to advance the rates TO something near our
tariE. They have been lighting each other,
but the Western Union is not greal inter

INDIAN TROUBLES

A Coup d Etat Looked For as ANY Minute
Wraps Up-Eis-TaiI, the Refractory
Crow, Nay Yet Wrap Up His Scalp.
BILLINGS, MONTANA, October 26.-Ths
greatest secrecy IS maintained by both the
highest and lowest officials at Forester, as
TO the plan to be pursued in arresting the
Indians although no outbreaks have occur
red since September Ii. It is certain that
something Of great importance is about to
be done. Sixteen companies Of soldiers are
now at the post, and if transportation can
be obtained two companies VIII be ordered
from Missoula. 1t is the current belief that
General Dudley, commanding the first cav
airy, viii take the field In person. Wraps
Up-His-Tail, or Sword Bearer, who leads the
refractory Crows, has Just returned from
the Cheyenne agency, where, with fifty Of
his followers he went to recruit. 1t is not
known how successful he has been, but 1t is
highly probably that q number of Cheyenne
braves have been added to his band. There
is now a sufficient number Of troops here to
prevent further outbreaks and settlers need
no longer be alarmed.

EDUCATING THE INDIANS.

Annual Report Of Superintendent Riley.
ofthe Indian sehoOls-sOme Timely sug-
EestiOns.
WASHINGTON, D. @. October 2z.-From
the annual report of John B. Riley, superin-
tendent Of Indian schools, to the secretary
Of the interior, it appears that the aggregate
expenditure by the government for the edu-
cation Of Indian children during the year
was 81, 005, 1873 of which Sis, 1913 was eIpen-
ded on account of ths government boarding
schools and $13O8, 299 for the support and
education of pupils at contract
boarding schools, most OF which are
under control of religious denominations
as the chief items. The whole number OF
Indian children between the ages Of 8 and 10
years is IS, 62I. OF this number 1882, or
about 81 per cent, attended school some
portion OF the year. The proportion OF
children attending school varies widely at
different agencies. Where schools have
been established for several years with &c
commOdatiOns for a considerable proper
'dcn of pupils, the prejudices exhibited by
the Indians against education has largely
disappeared. A uniform system OF text
books and study and the teaching Of En-
g ish only, are recommended. Inc
rspOrt SAYS that too much
sress cannot be laid upon the
importance Of preparing native teachers
and to this end suggests that norma!
school department be established at some OF
the large schools. It IS also suggested that
the rudiments, at least, should be taught
Indian children at or near their homes and
that the course of instruction at eastern
schools be adapted to the wants of pupils
who have shown IN the reservation
schools special aptitude, and further that
none but graduates Of the reservation
schools be permitted to attend eastern
schools and that such pupils
be selected by the Indian bureau upon GER
tificatiOn OF good character and scholarship.
The superintendent makes the following
recommendation: That an industrial
boarding school be established near the
Missouri river adjacent to the Sioux reser-
walton; that schools be provided for the
tribes IN Nevada; that a commission be ap-
pointed and empowered to make thorough
examination on the whole subject Of Indian
education. On the whole the report shows
an appreciable advance during the year In
Indian education.

The Round Valley Fvictions Assume a

SAN Francisco, CAL, October 26.-United
States District Attorney Carey received
telegram from the sheriff of MendocinO
county informing him that he was gathering
a posse to capture Captain Shaw, whom
General Howard had sent in command Of
the United States troops to eject sheep herd
ers and others from Round Valley Indian
reservation, in this state. The telegram also
states that the state courts had issued a writ
Of injunction ordering Captain Shaw to de-
sist from removing trespassers. District
Attorney Carey advised General Howard to
order Captain Shaw to surrender to the sher-
if, which General Howard declined to do
without an order from the president or sec
rotary of war. ThereupOn Carey sent dis
patch to the attorney general at Washin ton
in which he states that if Sheriff Carey and
General How ard continues to refuse It VIII
probably result In blOOdshed.

THE zIEBoLD & HAeELIN CASE.

Attorney General Bradfor- Asks to be
Heard in the Kansas Liquor Law Cases
WASHINGTON, D. c., October 4.-The
supreme court to-day denied the motion to
advance made by Mr.. Packard in the four
prohibition liquor cases from Iowa and enc
from Georgia, standing on the docket as
LOIS and ,O91 to 1854 inclusive. They in
vOlve the same questions which were pre-
scented by the case Of ZirboId d. Hagelin,
already argued. The attorney general Of
Kansas who, by reason OF MISREPRESENTATION
did not appear to argue the latter
case orally, was in the court room this
morning and fled petition for leave to
make oral argument now, notwithstanding
the court having already taken the case un-
der advisement. The question presented by
this case Is regarded as a very important
one, since it involves the cOnstitutiOnality
of all prohibition legislation since the ad0p-
ton of the fourteenth amendment, which
does not provide for compensation 20 the
brewer or dishllers for the value of property

Twenty Gros Ventres Taken ia Charge for
safe Keeping.
FORT CUSTER, MONT, October 2S.-Twen-
ty eros Ventres en- route from the Soshons
camp were brought in yesterday to be held
until the trouble is over. The weather is
quite warm and the snow gone from the
plaieaus and bottoms, but there are still
large quantities in the mountains. No
movements viii be made against the out
laws for two or three days. A white scout
accompanied by two Crow scouts was sent
yesterday 70 locate Sword Bearers camp Of
insubOTdinates. 1t was found twelve miles
up the Big Horn. Thirty or forty lodges
we're with him, representing a following Of
200 or more. 1t is now the opinion of the
officers il the post, that when the forces take
the held, SWnFd Bearer and his people will
take TO the mountains. In Black Canyon on
the Big Horn they can defy pursuit. Sword
Bearer says: when Sitting Bull fought,
there were many buffalo, now there are as
many cattle-I shall not want for meat - He
Is defiant, but an open demonstration of
military strength may lead to capitulation
without a battle.
